CENTRALITE 1 Q MISS FLORELLA LOWRY OF all those whom Central has lost from her ranks during the four years spent in the new building, probably no one is more sadly missed than Miss Lowry. She had been so long identified with the life of the school, her influence, quiet though vital, had been felt in so many lines, that it has been hard to realize the day's work must now go on without her. Miss Lowry was scholarly, and she appreciated scholarly attainment in others. But, more than all else, she valued that quickening of the mind and heart of a student that developed in him the power to think and act inde- pendently, and to this end all her effort tended. She was especially interested in fine literature, and especially qualified by nature and training to interest others in this rich field of work. It was a pleasure to see the response of her pupils to her stimulating guidance in the interpretation of a great author, even those less generously endowed being at length awakened to a measure of real appreciation. Miss Lowry's rehearsals for the 12-A class plays she directed, were equally interesting. Not only did she show good judgment in her choice of the drama to be presented, and a sure instinct in the assignment of parts, but her ability in training her cast and her tact in managing the youthful actors made these rehearsals not only educational, but delightful to all. Often, too, she discovered really good dramatic ability in an otherwise unpromising boy or girl, and so brought out latent talent and gave the spur to ambition. Her last position as Counselor of Whittier I-lall gave broader scope for Miss Lowry's power to awaken and encourage the dull, as well as to stimulate and steady the gifted, for she then became their advisor in every line of endeavor., I-ler understanding of young people, her ready sympathy with them in their work and their play, and her invariable courtesy to them- her willingness to hear their side of the case, won their love and their esteem. Miss Lowry's relation to the other members of the faculty was one of friendly and hearty co-operation, for the honor of the school was her honor, and its wel- fare her goal. ' MARGARET E. THOMPSON.
